last week or so ive been noticing water leaking from this part i uploaded on this thread. i dont know the name of it and im trying to figure out this problem. last couple of days ive been smelling anitfreeze heavily but havent noticed it running hot until friday evening. i was on the interstate and i heard a ticking noise as i pressed the gas at the same time. couple minutes later foxbody died on me in traffic, no water in radiotor and water leaking from behind this part....please help
I had a 302 in my 87 F150 that had a small leak and it emptied most of the rad... The motor got so hot it didn't idle... I didn't notice this until I was on the freeway (gauge was faulty). Long story short I replace the coolant and small coolant line that had a pin hole leak in it. The engine was also down a quart of oil. Let everything cool and topped the oil and coolant and she fired right back up and I put many more miles on it. I hope your engine is okay too... Fingers crossed, it's no fun when something like this happens...
